Photoshop tutorial: making text photo with Angelina Jolie's head-shot

[SharadtheKop]

you rock!!

[lilscrappydoo40]

Great job



[Rankus95]

it wont let me define brush preset? :S

[TheShellinder]

made sense to me, just managed to do it but the guy was right. You need to use an image with a low contrast as when mine was finished it was to bright.

[Bajekitty]

Thank you very much, created my own from this :)

[ColinTheBandGeek]

I did four pictures and used the define brush preset tool each time but now I can not make a new one. Im doing the same thing I did when it was working.

[KoshikaMyau]

and copy paste!

[KoshikaMyau]

ALT+layer text--->ALT+layer mask

[TeeGrace1]

[polosukerliz]

I did everything right up until you did the brush preset, I had made the selection of the text and as I went to make the brush it wouldn't let me so I made a stamp instead, but how do I fix it for next time?

[KleinHendrixTheCool]

You are fucking awesome!

[pmg1180]

copy paste on mask? i dont get it.. With with control and what? It does not making any sense.. Select all then copy then paste on mask or what??? Please help me?? it doesnt work right... after I do that.

[ktkiffme1]

@pmg1180 try Command C and Command J

[15jenicemary15]

@pmg1180 he copy the layer of the shadow... 

[xSunnyBluex]

y every 1 use Angelina Jolie ?!

[logongod]

@xSunnyBluex coz everyone searches for Angelina jolie

[oViixeN]

@xSunnyBluex cause shes hot.....

[GADG3TB0Y]

im assuming this wont work if you are working with a B&W photo?

[apu1349]

you don,t need to Ctrl+ c than Ctrl+j on selection to paste it is direct Ctrl+j for new duplicate layer selection

[TutorialsFromTjStyle]

Hey Come Check MY Channel Out People!! I Make Awesome Software Tutorials!! :D

[ceceelreyyaviene]

not understanding what you do at the minute 4:49 to 5:21 can you tell me what command you used?

[aziz10aj]

@ceceelreyyaviene he said "Ctrl A to select all and Ctrl C to copy all now on the task layer turn on the visibility on and background layer off. add new layer mask by adding this the up layer mask button down over there and press Alt to the layer up and click on the layer mask so that only layer mask this___past the picture that you have just copied" I hope this what he said if I'm not mistaking

[gaelancormier]

Control+J or Command+J (Mac) = new layer via Copy, the first copying action does nothing...

[alexislupeni1]

OMGGGG...i don't understand what you speak....

[mamunrabbe]

can anyone tell me how to increase the size of the brush,using which button???

[DJFinnTV]

@mamunrabbe the bracket buttons (jus to the right of the "P" button

[Angellafaye21]

I'm using Photoshop Elements 10 and I don't see Color Range. Where is it?

Please Help me!

[cccxxxc]

@Angellafaye21 it's in the full version of Photoshop. Elements is a cheaper basic version with most of the more powerful features omitted.

[Angellafaye21]

@cccxxxc Ok.

[mohsin1982mughal]

just say thanks budy. you do a gr8 job bro keep it up

[doublclik]

I have always wanted to know how to do this, and was easily able to follow along. This will be extra credit for my PS students!

[adriandomingo32]

amazing guy huh? med school and graphic arts. :) keep going forward friend!

[XxkawaiiwriterxX]

You probably can't get the define brush preset to work because PS won't save a brush that's larger than 2500 pixels. In that case, you can only make it smaller.

[geostigmaX9]

5:22 place the pixels how????

[g0rilaki]

@geostigmaX9 control V

[geostigmaX9]

@g0rilaki thank you :)

[blueknight0026]

@geostigmaX9 control v dude

[tengomuchodinero]

[11schubert]

I had done a similar tut for PS Elements. I had to refer back to that tut in order to do this one because I'm still using Elements. Still, I like this one a lot. Thanks.
